Sugar Reg. 811

P art 811S ugar R equirements;
Continental U nited S tates REQUIREMENTS FOR 1950

Basis and purpose. The determina tion set forth below is made pursuant to section 201 of the Sugar Act of 1948.
The act requires that the Secretary of Agriculture make such determination for the calendar year 1950 during De cember of 1949. The determination has been based, insofar as required by sec tion 201 of the act, on official statistics of the Department of Agriculture and statistics published by other agencies of the Federal Government. The purpose of such determination is to provide the amount of sugar needed to meet the re quirements of consumers in the conti nental United States for the calendar year 1950. The determination provides a basis for the establishment of sugar quotas for such year pursuant to section 202 of the act.
Prior to the issuance of this determi nation, notice was given 14 F. R. 6719
that the Secretary of Agriculture was preparing, among other things, to deter mine the sugar consumption require ments for the calendar year 1950 and that any interested person might pre sent any data, views, or arguments with respect thereto at a public hearing to be held in Washington, D. C., on November 30, 1949. In addition, the notice stated that any interested person might present any data, views, or arguments with reaspect thereto in writing not later than December 12, 1949. In making this de termination, due consideration has been given to thé data, views, and arguments expressed at the hearing held on No vember 30, and December 1, 1949, and the data, views, and arguments subHfitted in writing on or before December 12,1949, in accordance with the Admin istrative Procedure Act 60 Stat. 237.
Since the Sugar Act of 1948 requires that the Secretary of Agriculture deter
mine sugar consumption requirements for the calendar year 1950 during the month of December 1949, it is not pos sible to comply with the 30-day effective date requirement of the Administrative Procedure Act. Accordingly, this deter mination shall be effective when pub lished in the F ederal R egister.
811.2 Consumption requirements, 1950. The amount of sugar needed to meet the requirements of consumers in the continental United States for the calendar year 1950 is hereby determined to be 7,500,000 short tons, raw value.
STATEMENT OF BASES AND CONSIDERATIONS

Section 201 of the Sugar Act of 1948
reads as follows:
The Secretary shaU determine for each calendar year, beginning with the calendar year 1948, the amount of sugar needed to meet the requirements of consumers in the continental United States; such determina tions shall be made during the month of December in each year for the succeeding calendar year in the case of the calendar year 1948, during the first ten days thereof and at such other times during such calen dar year as the Secretary may deem neces sary to meet such requirements. In making such determinations the Secretary shall use as a basis the quantity of direct consumption sugar distributed for consumption, as indi cated by official statistics of the Department of Agriculture, during the twelve-month pe riod ending October 31 next preceding the calendar year for which the determination is being made, and shall make allowances for a deficiency or surplus in inventories of sugar, and for changes in consumption be cause of changes in population and demand conditions, as computed from statistics pub lished by agencies of the Federal Govern ment; and, in order that such determinations shall be made so as to protect the welfare of consumers and of those engaged in the domestic sugar industry by providing such supply of sugar as will be consumed at prices which will not be excessive to consumers and which will fairly and equitably maintain and protect the welfare of the domestic sugar industry, the Secretary, in making any such determination, in addition to the consump tion, inventory, population, and demand fac tors above specified and the level and trend of consumer purchasing power, shall take into consideration the relationship between the prices at wholesale for refined sugar that would result from such determination and the general cost of living in the United States Continued on p. 7753
